Lords division · 20 Nov 2003 · No. 3

Criminal Justice Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, as an amendment to the motion that the House do not insist on its amendments 114 to 119 and 121 to 131 en bloc and do agree with the Commons in their amendments 131C to 131T, to leave out from “119” to end and insert “, 122 to 125 and 127 to 131, do agree with Commons amendments 131C to 131G and 131I to 131T, but do insist on its amendments 121 and 126 and do disagree with Commons amendment 131H”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Lord Cope of Berkeley (Content), Lord Dholakia (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote
